Epileptogenic Zone Location of Temporal Lobe Epilepsy by Cross-Frequency Coupling Analysis

Epilepsy is a chronic brain disease with dysfunctional brain networks, and electroencephalography (EEG) is an important tool for epileptogenic zone (EZ) identification, with rich information about frequencies. Different frequency oscillations have different contributions to brain function, and cross...

Epileptogenic Zone Location of Temporal Lobe Epilepsy by Cross-Frequency Coupling Analysis
description Epilepsy is a chronic brain disease with dysfunctional brain networks, and electroencephalography (EEG) is an important tool for epileptogenic zone (EZ) identification, with rich information about frequencies.

In this paper, we analyzed long-term stereo-electroencephalography (SEEG) data from 17 patients with temporal lobe epilepsy.
